When You Least Expect It

She Found Him

Katy's POV:
She looks at the person on the bench and it's... a homeless man. She sighs. "Kyle where are you?" She whispers to her self. The words just drift off into the wind and all you hear is silence. Then her mother's boyfriend shows up. "You find him?" "No I didn't and I can't he's gone because of me. I'm sure he left because I kind of freaked out when he called me sis. Then he freaked out I shouldn't have said anything. I should have let it slide. Now he's gone and probably lost because of me." I broke down crying. I didn't mean for him to leave. I just was surprised when he called me sis. I wish I could take it back. Kevin came up to me and he's hugging me. For some reason I feel safe. I feel like everything is going to be alright in Kevin's arms. I shake off the thought. I get up "i'm fine I feel better." He stands up all the way towering over me. "Come on we have to get home I will look for him, but you need to get home and rest. I will walk you ok?" I just nod my head yes I don't feel like talking anymore. We reach home and I go to my room. Kevin left again searching for Kyle. I am just pacing back and forth for the next half hour. Someone comes up the stairs. I stop thinking maybe it's Kyle. Then my mom opens the door and I go back to pacing. She looks at me concerned. "Sweetheart stop pacing your creating a draft." "Sorry mom." I stop and look at her. "Honey I didn't know that you would be this worried about Kyle?" "Of course I am it's my fault he ran away in the first place. How do I fix this mom?" she gives me a small smile walks in my room. Comes over to me takes my hand leads me to my bed. We sit down she and I take a deep breath. "All you can do is keep strong. We will find him Katy. It's not your fault. Don't stress yourself honey you know what the doctor said." I shake my head. "Your right, your right i'm going to lay down." Then we hear the door close Kevin comes upstairs. "No luck, but we wont give up." I give them both a small smile. They leave the room. Once I know they're gone I get up put on a sweater and head out the window. Once i'm outside and in front of my house I run to the left. And look around see if I can see Kyle. It feels like i've been running for hours probably have. I have came to a fourway. I decide to go straight. Then I hear thundering and say lightning stike. Something in me jolted alive. And all I can see is a small house.
Flashback
"Kyle i'm scared." "It's okay Katy I got you nothing is going go happen to you while your big brothers here." the lightning strikes again Katy jumps back and screams. "Katy shhh it's ok look at me okay focus on me." He puts head phone on her ears and turns up the music and keeps her from seeing the storm and she soon falls asleep."
Flashback Over
What the sprinkles. I am so confused. I knew Kyle, hes my brother? I keep walking and that's it. I see Kyle leaning on a tree. I run up to him and give him a big hug. He is surprised at first but then hugs back. I look up at him and smile. "Don't *slap* (to the arm) you *slap* ever *slap* do *slap* that *slap* agian. By the time Ive finished the sentence he is rubbing his arm and it's red. He pouts his lip "that hurt." I laugh at him. I grab his hand "come on big bro lets go home." He gives me a big smile "you remeber!" "Yea some I remeber your my brother. I am still angry at you though Kevin and I were looking everywhere for you." we get home and both mom and Kevin look kind of angry. Then they see Kyle and their face soften a little bit. "Sorry mom sorry Kevin I just needed to find him." Kevin still has that frown when I call him Kevin. Mom hugs Kyle and since i've been with Kyle I forgot all about the storm. When *Crack* I jump they all look at me and I shrug my shoulders. "Can we get inside before I piss myself from fear?" They all start laughing at me. I don't think this is funny. We get inside and I can smell food. My stomach growls and I hurry to the dining room. There is two plates so far on the table. I go to the kitchen and mom is making the three other plates. I help take them to the table. Kevin, Kyle, and I sit at the table. While mom went to get Karen. They come in and we dig in to our meal. But before I eat I look at everyone. All their eyes went to me. "Um I remember that Kyle is my brother." my mom almost choked on her chicken. "Really how?" She asked in between breathes. "Well when I was looking for Kyle thunder and lightning struck and I remembered a memory. Of when Kyle and me where hiding and he was telling me that nothing will get me while my big brother was there. And that was it. I still know there is something missing to my memory but I don't know what. I'm sure I will remeber it soon though." "That's great sweetheart at least your starting to remeber. Now lets talk about you sneakimg out of the house." I then stuff my face with food. "Mmm this is good mom what's in it?" Kevin laughs at me and mom raises an eyebrow. "Ok fine yes I know it was wrong i'm sorry but I bad to find Kyle. I had to fix my mistake." she nods and smiles. "I accept your apology you had me worried sick now hurry up and finish were goimg to watch a movie as a family. We all finished and went to the couch. Sat down and watched Fox & The Hound. At the end of the movie I couldn't hold it in any longer. "Mom did my farther love me?"
